Cognitive Dissonance

More Contradictions in the Torah

16th August 2017 by Red Johnson 111 Comments

First and foremost a person should be intellectually honest with themselves when looking at the Torah and the Tanach.

Virtually All of the Stories in the Torah are Ahistorical

3rd July 2017 by Red Johnson Leave a Comment

(Sarah Lazarovic) “Virtually all of the stories in the Torah are ahistorical,” declares a manifesto posted in July on TheTorah.com. “Given the data to which modern historians have access,” the essay explains, “it is impossible to regard the accounts of mass Exodus from Egypt, the wilderness experience or the coordinated, swift, and complete conquest of the entire land […]

Emotion and Logic – Dr Jason Long

13th April 2017 by Red Johnson Leave a Comment

   Since we can see that childhood indoctrination, threats of punishment, cultural isolation, biased argumentation, cognitive dissonance, low self-esteem, and low intelligence lead people to illogical conclusions about religion, the question should now become how to undo the effects of some of these phenomena. One of the primary findings of persuasive psychology is that, outside […]
